Hindsight is fun, I can say I'm sure Jax would have run out the clock. Or I'm sure that if they executed the kick better they'd recover and go on and score.

He made a call, the play went poorly and the final score makes it seem like the game was lost on that call. The game was lost on more than that call and it's really easy to 2nd guess it when it fails. It would have been really easy to 2nd guess kicking off if they did that and never got the ball back.
